The method herein uses a unique iterative technique to first identify the mass flow rate based on pressure drops across the individual teeth, which is then used in the governing sets of continuity and momentum equations. The method is applicable to different teeth geometries and arrangements. A parametric analysis of the effect ofmass flow rate on rotor dynamic coefficients is performed and suggests that a small variation in mass flow rate does not significantly d
